Comment 2 Jan Lahoda 2002-03-08 09:33:04 UTC 
Hi,
   the help window is not part of editor module. Probably defined in
core or openide, so reassigning to core.
Comment 3 zohar 2002-03-18 12:15:40 UTC 
Please, I don't think it's that difficult, but it's pretty annoying. 
Could anyone take a look please?
Comment 4 David Simonek 2002-03-18 13:19:25 UTC 
yes, passing to help system for evaluation. thx for notification.
Comment 5 Patrick Keegan 2002-03-22 15:26:24 UTC 
This seems to only happen on JDK 1.4 with the Windows L&F. No problems 
with Metal or Motif on either JDK 1.3.1 or JDK 1.4. No problems with 
Windows on JDK 1.3
Comment 6 zohar 2002-03-29 14:51:51 UTC 
jus to make it clear - is it or is it not going to be 
fixed?
Comment 7 Patrick Keegan 2002-04-10 19:08:00 UTC 
reassigning to engineers in core
Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2002-04-12 14:47:39 UTC 
Purely JavaHelp issue, not NetBeans per se.
Comment 9 brinkley 2002-04-12 16:25:16 UTC 
Unfortunantly those are the highlight colors that user selected. The
highlight colors are determined from Swing setting.
Comment 10 Patrick Keegan 2002-04-12 16:30:03 UTC 
I don't understand. If all the user did was switch from JDK 1.3 to JDK 
1.4, how have they "chosen" that color. It certainly doesn't seem to 
be conscious.
Comment 11 brinkley 2002-04-12 16:34:41 UTC 
Windows L&F code changed parameters in JDK1.4. It's not the same code.
Comment 12 brinkley 2002-11-14 18:11:31 UTC 
Bugtraq bug 4649369 is closed as duplicate of a JavaHelp bug 4761990.
4761990 is more descriptive of the problem and is in the JavaHelp domain.
